    Exactly. You need to change your password.

    Answer: the Gizmodo article explains it.
    TL;DR: it's caused by a keyboard layout.

    123456: This password has been seen 23174662 times before.

    That's right: there's nearly ten times as many people using 123456 than 12345, so the password used in Spaceballs is actually the more secure one of the two!

    The reason it's showing up fairly often in a data breach repository is because "ji32k7au4a83" translates to English as "my password."

    How exactly does "ji32k7au4a83" translates to english? Is it base64-encoded or something?

    It's not about "missions", it's about people voting with their dollars.

    Some people don't care about destroying the planet even further and so those fucking idiots buy polluting, gas-guzzling SUVs.

    Everyone else wants to buy electric cars because even coal-powered electric plants can do a better job at filtering the pollution than millions of cars. And you can make electricity a lot of different ways like hydro, wind, solar and nuclear.

    And in theory, a well-maintained electric car from 2019 could still be used in 2049 with a much higher driving range because of breakthroughs in battery technology in the next three decades.

  12. We sort of need a "Windows Gaming Edition", because I suspect even their "Lite" edition will waste ressources on social media integration and data gathering features.

    Instead of trying to unlock a locked-down, DRM-infested console, why not just build your own? There's dozens of Raspberry Pi-based portable console projects out there to copy or to use as a starting point.

    And yet here we are with two decades old hardware that still have perfectly functional USB type A ports.

    But all I see is more expensive laptops with unreliable keyboards and a problematic T2 chip.
    Hell, when they released the 2018 MacBook Air, they kept the 2017 model, which is really the 2015 model, at the same fucking price it has been for years.
